The three main seasons in the Himalayan foothills are: winter, summer and monsoons. The best time for a safari or a bird watching trip is during winter (November to February) when the days are pleasant (12 - 25 degree Celcius), nights cold and humidity is low. Temperature rises rapidly to 38-40 degree Celsius in the hot season (May to June) but the wild life sigting is good around water holes and rainfall increases with the occasional thunderstorm after June. Humidity is high in the rainy season (June to September), with over 750 mm of precipitation in July to August, and there is little temperature variation. Annual rainfall ranges from 1200-1500 mm.

Ideal Time to Visit the Park : From December to March. Beyond April, it is extremely hot here but for hard core wild lifers this is best time to view wild life.
